Abstract

2, 3, 7, 8-Tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin(TCDD), a prototype of many halogenated aromatic hydrocarbons, is a ubiquitous, persistent environmental contaminant and the most powerful carcinogen categorized by IARC. Despite extensive research, the mechanisms of TCDD-induced carcinogenesis are poorly understood, and its carcinogenic potential in human is not clear.(omitted)
